Great read. Entertaining and informative, name a more iconic duo. Agree wholeheartedly with the "stand up to bullies," especially early. If there's one thing that stands out about the Twitter execs it's their (relative) courage compared to some of the other political and legal actors whose inaction make the bully some else's problem.
If Twitter declares bankruptcy, they will be in status "SOL" — but if paying them would bankrupt the company, he would have to take the company into bankruptcy...although I would imagine at that point, he just reaches into his own other pocket and pulls out the spare change
Thanks for keeping an eye on the Evil Empire. The hullabaloo about a laptop used by H. Biden and supposed manipulation of social media makes a bit more sense to me. Gould, Vanderbilt, Fisk, and Morgan seem to fall into the amateur rankings when compared to Musk.
The fascinating thing that I learned about the Hunter Biden laptop the other day, which made the whole Hunter Biden-hacked-data-weird-computer-dude-in-Wilmington thing make sense is that — according to this report, from a source I respect but not something I have verified myself — someone hacked Hunter Biden's iCloud account, and then took that account and logged into a laptop that Hunter Biden himself had never owned or used, and downloaded the entire hacked iCloud to the laptop, making it look as though it were "Hunter Biden's laptop", which was then given to the repair dude in Wilmington, who found some way to funnel it to a journalist, but in many ways, that detail seems small and maybe pedantic, but it's actually nuance that makes some of the reporting on the whole deal make a lot more sense, because the hack is what created the laptop, not what got the data off the laptop.
You weren’t kidding when you asked for an explanation of ERISA’s exhaustion rule. Congress should fix this, IMO. What a patchwork mess of case law. In this specific circumstance, I’m inclined to think they never received a response from the Plan Administrator, and have submitted an appeal. I very much doubt the back-and-forth you’re imagining is happening because there’s no one left to do it. They’re trying to move quickly to exhaust ERISA, I’d imagine, and that takes time. Elmo doesn’t even know what ERISA is, let’s be real. The Form 4 with the SEC is bizarre.

Are the executives entitled to any interest / damages due to delays in payment? What happens if Musk declares bankruptcy?

That word "nuance" appears again. Funny how important that turns out to be.... 🤔
